Answer:

Johnny is incorrect because the slope is actually 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope:  m = [tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]

Step 1:  Plug in the points

m = [tex]\frac{4 - 10}{4 - 5}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{-6}{-1}[/tex]

m = 6

Answer:  Johnny is incorrect because the slope is actually 6.
